Sorry to tell you this but you've been lied to about these books being banned, as in they are not being banned, they are still allowed.

what does this reply have to do with your misunderstanding about the definition of "ban"?
The books are not banned. Students are allowed to possess the books. Students are allowed to read the books.
our conversation started by discussing the definition of "ban" and people interpreting the word "ban" in a way not written in any dictionary.
but now you are saying "the books" as if we were already talking about specific books. are you sure you are replying to the comment chain you intended to reply to?
